La Sambuy-Seythenex, Alpine ski resort in Faverges-Seythenex, France.
La Sambuy-Seythenex is a ski resort in the French Alps featuring ten runs across about 10 kilometers of slopes that range from 1150 to 1851 meters in elevation. Five lift systems provide access to different sections of the mountain throughout the terrain.
The resort opened in 1960 with initial lift systems and expanded two years later to meet growing interest in winter sports. This early development established it as a regular destination in the regional skiing landscape.
The resort integrates French Alpine recreational traditions through its ski school programs and mountain sports education for regional visitors.
The site is located in the French Alps between roughly 1150 and 1851 meters in elevation, which means snow conditions and weather can vary significantly. Visitors should prepare for changing conditions and check current operating status before traveling.
The resort closed its winter operations in 2023 after facing particularly difficult snow conditions in the previous season. This closure highlights how lower-elevation ski areas struggle increasingly with inadequate snow.
